SHARPENING MOWER BLADE

MOWER BLADE on page 16).

Ariens recommends having mower blades sharpened by a

professional. Contact your Ariens dealer.

Discard mower blade if (figure 15):

• more than 1/2 in. (1.27 cm) of metal is removed.

• the air lift erosion area is eroded.

• the mower blade is bent or broken.

Do not change angle of cutting edge or round the corner at

the end of mower blade.

2. Sharpen mower blade by removing an equal amount of

material from each end of mower blade.

3. Check mower blade balance by sliding mower blade on

an unthreaded bolt. If blade is balanced, it should

remain in a horizontal position. If either end of mower

blade moves downward, sharpen the heavy end until

mower blade is balanced.
